On IP installations only, you can accept the default values for most of the questions. A typical minimal configuration using IP follows and continues through Step 8: Configuring global parameters: Enter host name [Router]: Router Enter the enable secret password when the following is displayed (remember this password for future reference): The enable secret is a password used to protect access to privileged EXEC and configuration modes. This password, after entered, becomes encrypted in the configuration. Enter enable secret: barney Enter the enable password when the following is displayed (remember this password for future reference): The enable password is used when you do not specify an enable secret password, with some older software versions, and some boot images. Enter enable password: wilma The commands available at the user EXEC level are a subset of those available at the privileged EXEC level. Because many privileged EXEC commands are used to set operating parameters, you should protect these commands with passwords to prevent unauthorized use. You must enter the correct password to gain access to privileged EXEC commands. When you are running from the boot ROM monitor, the enable password might be the correct one to use, depending on your boot ROM level. The enable and enable secret passwords need to be different for effective security. You can enter the same password for both enable and enable secret during the setup script, but you receive a warning message indicating that you should enter a different password. Note An enable secret password can contain from 1 to 25 uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters; an enable password can contain any number of uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters. In both cases, a number cannot be the first character. Spaces are also valid password characters; for example, "two words" is a valid password. Leading spaces are ignored; trailing spaces are recognized. Catalyst Supervisor Engine 32 PISA Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide, Release 12.2ZY 3-6 OL-11439-03
